We try to keep the meetings to an hour. Members are welcomed at the venue, and the agenda typically follows this format:
Introductory remarks
Presentation from the charity awarded the major donation at the last meeting
Brief 3 minute presentation from each of the three nominated charities followed by a brief Q&A
A special guest speaker
Reminder of how to vote and thank yous
Member voting will take place once the meeting is over.
The charity with the most votes will be communicated to the members through email and social media 3-4 days after the event.
You sure can! Joining with a Team allows you to split the cost and time commitment, while creating community with coworkers, friends, and like-minded peers.
To sign up as a Team, each Member must complete a Membership Commitment Form. Teams may be comprised of 2-4 people.
As a Team, you are allowed just one vote at each event, but everyone is welcome to attend. Teams are also welcome to fill out our Charity Nomination Form.

Our goal is to make a large donation on behalf of the whole group, thusly, the answer is no. We want to be able to support this endeavor and give a single group donation to make a large impact in our community, with each Member contributing to the larger donation. This is the power of individuals united for a cause! We also need to be able to track your donations so that you get credit for the donation and remain an active, voting-eligible Member of the group.
